Caabu invites you to an online book launch on Algeria: From the Dark Decade to the Hirak, with author and academic Dr. Michael J.
UK parliamentarians have called for consequences on Egypt if Alaa Abd el-Fattah is not released from prison, given consular access or is allowed to die in custody.
During COP27, pro-democracy activist and British-Egyptian citizen Alaa Abd el-Fattah was raised by both the Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy MP and Green Party MP Caroline Lucas at Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Questions on 8 November 2022. Alaa is currently on hunger strike in prison in Egypt and on day 3 without water.
The UK Government confirms to Conservative MP Richard Graham with Minister David Rutley MP agreeing that it is "the longstanding position" to keep the UK Embassy to Israel in Tel Aviv and that there are no plans to move it to Jerusalem.
Caabu welcomes the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's commitment to the application of international law & accountability in occupied territory, at Prime Minister's Questions on 2 November, in a response to a question from Scottish National Party (SNP) MP Tommy Sheppard. This applies in all such cases, Ukraine & elsewhere, & includes the occupied Palestinian territory.

More than 5.5 million Palestinians may be getting a new overlord. The electorate of their occupier, Israel, will make its choice on Tuesday. This will be followed by weeks or months of grubby horse-trading, which may even lead to another ballot in the spring of 2023.
Over 60 UK Parliamentarians, from various parties, and from both the House of Commons and the House of Lords have written to the Foreign Secretary, Rt Hon James Cleverly MP calling for him to secure the release of pro-democracy activist and writer, Alaa Abd el-Fattah – a British citizen who has been unlawfully imprisoned in Egypt for nine years, and get him safely to the UK.

Dear Foreign Secretary,
Five former European foreign ministers, including Caabu Patron Baroness Sayeeda Warsi have written calling for the acknowledgment that Israeli policies against Palestinians, amount to the crime of apartheid.
